Yep. It positions itself as fiscally conservative and business friendly,

What’s the reason there are no Fortune 500s in Utah? Sorry, I’m dumb

Taxing SS benefits is just wrong. That will keep me away in retirement.

Utah is a red state that isn't very conservative

I do want a lottery. It's time. Utah needs a lottery in a bad way.

It doesn’t help that Utah doesn’t allow charitable contributions to reduce taxes

My charitable donations reduce my AGI which reduces UT state income tax

I’m not sure it does. AGI is used to calc Utah tax. Standard or itemized

Can you expound? I always thought "protectionism" was tariff related?

Limiting income taxes revenue to edu is in the UT state constitution. I don’t…

Probably a poor example. Maybe school choice is a better example.

Doesn't Cox own the business that provides broadband or Wi-Fi to Utah schools?

Aren't the majority of Utah schools networked by the U?

Most Utahns don't know this. Vote Republican & don't do their homework

Utah taxes is not a Cox issue. It is an Utah issue and has been for a while.
